A woman died on Monday after a person allegedly slit her throat when she refused to accept his marriage proposal in Odisha’s Balasore district, officials said.<\/p>\n
The incident took place at Lingapada village. The deceased has been identified as Jyotirmayee Rana (25).<\/p>\n
The woman’s mother claimed that her daughter was killed despite filing a complaint against a man at Soro police station three days ago about harassment.<\/p>\n
“A man had been visiting our house recently and insisted that we fix his marriage with our daughter. I had rejected the proposal. We suspect that he killed our daughter,” she said.<\/p>\n
Sources at Soro police station said that it does not have an office-in-charge at present following the transfer of the former OC.<\/p>\n
A senior police officer said that teams were formed to arrest the accused person, who is on the run after the incident.<\/p>\n
Further investigation is underway, he said.<\/p>\n
An official at the hospital where the woman was taken after the attack said that her throat was slit using a sharp weapon.<\/p>\n
